TV/MoviesRe: Lauretta Onochie Speaks On Big Brother Naija And The Adult Content by abatically(m): 7:53am On Feb 20, 2018
dabossman:
Actually, it is my field.There is a difference between free-to-air terrestrial channels and pay/cable TV. NBC will readily ban unsavory content on free-to-air channels like AIT, LTV, Channels etc because it is suplied to homes freely. All you need is an antenna. Cable/Pay TV is different. You used your money to buy it by choice. It is not exactly freely available. You bought a decoder and subscribed. In other words, you used your hand to bring the wahala into your home. There are many channels on DSTV that broadcast stuff worse than BBN. The onus is on you to monitor what your wards watch and these platforms have parental control features. When the NBC bans songs, they are still aired on MTV, Trace, Hip Hop TV and so on cable. They are two different scenarios. The only censorship requirement is to put an are limit. BBNclearly states it is for 18+.

And it's not true that BBN is a dove. This show has been with us for more than 15 years since the first BBA. Most people know what it is about. They are not ignorant about it.
You just nailed it. Same thing I've been trying to explain to some people. Bbnaija does not air on national TV, u pay to watch it by buying decoder and subscribing. Asking for it to be banned is like going to arrest someone who uses his money to buy a porn CD and watches it in his home. And I don't get why people call bbn porn. It's ridiculous. Yes they kiss but they kiss more on telemundo. Whoever is waiting till middle of the night when housemates are asleep to see who is smooching who is simply jobless. The show is even saner now that they removed shower scenes unlike the old BBA where cameras we're allover the bathroom and people wait to see when housemates take their showers. As for Any teenager that waits until midnight to watch bbn do truth or dare, then their parents or guardians should be checked.

Why didn't NBC ban people from going to cinemas to see 50 shades? Because it was rated 18 and people pay to go see it by choice, it's the same thing with bbn only this time u pay to watch it in ur home.

This year 2018 BBNaija has turn over to porn tv entertainment and no longer seems to be as other years like 2017, therefore, according to our beloved naija music celeb [Olamide] i heard he was troubled by his music or video that it should be banned because it is not in proper terms accordingly but now wont they see this 2018 BBNaija and Banned it? because is not educated and not entertain any more....

badoo tracks and every other shaku shaku songs can be banned on radio and all local channels but cannot be banned on cable tv. Wo was banned, wavy level was banned, davido's If was banned, 9ice's Living things was banned.. but does that stop those videos from being aired on MTV base or Trace naija? I don't think so. They can be banned from mitv, NTA, Silverbird, AIT, etc. Now does BBnaija air on AIT, NTA, MITV, Silverbird etc? No. So how can they ban a show that is rated 18 and not shown on national TV?

NOT stolen, actually I gave it to someone. I will try what you said. I will confront the person i gave it to.
That lies the problem. U have ur previous phone to someone which still had ur Google acct so any contact that person saved would be on ur Google acct. When I restore on ur need phone it will bring all contacts including the person u gave ur phone to. Why not call the person and ask him if he knows any of the new contacts.
PhonesRe: Future Apple Iphone Models Expected To Feature Dual-sim Support by abatically(m): 6:17pm On Nov 24, 2017
henryobinna:
You're right, But for Apple to plan releasing mid-range smartphones says something about their sales(or profit) they're not making it as before hence the need to accommodate the mid-range fellas. Of course that'llbe at the expense of premium quality (hardware wise), am not an i-fanboy, but I admire their choice of premium materials for their devices.
Hmm, do u know the worst phone apple made was the iPhone 5c which was an attempt to mid range phones and that phone did not even sell because iPhone users are used to that premium feel. Also they called it mid range and sold for $500... That is the price of flagship killers like one plus 5.

I still doubt apple will compromise quality to make mid range phones. If they everyday come out with another mid range phone (they haven't since the 5c) it still won't be cheap. If they are selling the regular iPhone for $800 they will sell the so called cheap one for around $600 which is the price of a flagship Android.
PhonesRe: Which Iphone Is More Better Pls. Very Urgent by abatically(m): 6:12pm On Nov 24, 2017
Weird question. The 's' versions are always better, and the plus versions are always better. So when u have the plus and s version in one then u should know which is best.

Why are u looking to download a movie that is just getting to some cinemas? Do u just enjoy watching cam movies with very poor video and audio? Because even if ur gonna get a download link for this movie right now it would be a very poor quality cam version. Just wait until February or March 2018 for the Blu Ray to be released, that's when u can download good quality version.
Car TalkRe: Most Practical Location For A Fire Extinguisher by abatically(m): 12:07pm On Jan 29, 2017
fashrola:
Why would an FRSC officer tell you test a fire extinguisher? Abi dem no know say once u release the safety pin and press the lever.. the content will all be released to the environment and you'll need to recharge the system again
To tell u I was surprised is an understatement. When I tried to bring it out under the driver's seat I mistakingly released the safety pin and some of the content got discharged in the car. Those FRSC no even send me even though they saw the evidence in the car. They just told me the can was empty. After pronlonged argument they asked me to press it which I did and the last content was released. That was when they let me go.

SweetBoyFriend:


This is 2017, who still uses fire extinguisher in cars ??

Have you heard of car insurance ??

Go get a car insurance
So with car insurance means no need for fire extinguisher? Smh. Ur car might catch fire and u have some valuable documents to retrieve, a fire extinguisher can make it possible for u to retrieve those documents or do u think insurance company will do that for u? Hell someone might get stuck in a burning car and fire extinguisher can save his life or do u think insurance company will save that life for u?
Car TalkRe: Most Practical Location For A Fire Extinguisher by abatically(m): 8:43pm On Jan 28, 2017
I've always kept mine under the driver seat until last year at Benin asaba road. The FRSC officer asked for it, I reached under my seat to get it, unfortunately the space was right and I accidentally removed the safety pin and some of the content discharged inside the car. I finally brought it out and the officer said it was empty. I tried to explain to him that it got discharged while I was trying to bring it out, even showed him some of the yellow substance in my car from the discharge, Omo the guy no gree oh. Last last their oga asked me to point to the bush and press it, I did and luckily for me some content was still remaining. So they left me. On getting to Owerri I met another FRSC check point, asked for fire extinguisher, brought it out and they said it was empty. Told them I just discharged the remaining one at the check point earlier, Dem no gree. Asked me to press, I pressed and nothing came out. I had to pay them 5k before they let me go.

Right now I keep it in my trunk, I know it's not the best place to keep it but under my driver seat is just too tight

PhonesRe: . by abatically(m): 5:17pm On Nov 30, 2016
It could be either way. U can't be 100℅ sure it was guys at nipost that stole it. It could be a scam seller at AliExpress. The thing is when buying things from websites like eBay and AliExpress, u pose a risk of dealing with scammers posing as sellers. It is not AliExpress selling u the product, AliExpress is the body that bring different sellers together, just like eBay. I have seen many many horror stories from eBay where sellers package empty box. I even watched a video of a guy that bought an iPhone 6 on ebayband they sent him an iPhone 4 screen (not even the phone buy just a touchscreen that is probably damaged).

So my advice, next time check reviews about the seller before patronizing, make sure they have like 4.5 stars out of 5. Also contact AliExpress support and tell them ur story.

To check ur free 5gb type *559*62*

If u choose 4g only then u won't be able to make or receive calls but ur signal will remain on 4g. If u choose auto then it will swicth between 4g and 3g depending on the available network, that is when u can receive calls.

And u think this will sell like samsung, HTC, lg , iphone or even tecno? I don't think so. If I want a proper camera will get a DSLR camera rather than an underspec'd phone with a huge camera lens. Remember Lumia 808 and samsung galaxy zoom?

PhonesRe: Kodak's New Smartphone Is A Photographer's Dream by abatically(m): 8:54am On Nov 02, 2016
FreshBoss007:
this is surely a camera phone
Nope, it is a phone camera. Seriously I don't see this breaking the market. Serious snappers would still prefer a DSLR camera while casual snappers will still chose an iPhone, a samsung galaxy, HTC or LG. Having a phone with a huge camera at the back just don't entice people. To cut costs and sellbthe phone at affordable price, they will have to tone down the specs like ram, processor, screen resolution and build quality. These are what matters to most people abd not some gigantic camera. Go and ask samsung what happened with the galaxy zoom, ask Nokia what hapoened with the 808 pureview.

I'm impressed. But these are early days, having this speed at launch for LTE advance is not surprising. But give it a few months, let more people get on their LTE and let's see how they keep up. Spectranet and swift have us incredible speed at launch, these days their speeds have drastically reduced. I'mnkt expecting more than 50mbps from mtn by the time more subscribers join. Let's wait and see.
